In this Perspective, we highlight the importance of diversity and inclusion in dementia research, not only in study participants but also in the researchers, study design, and funding priorities. We describe how the lack of representation creates knowledge gaps and delays progress in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. We also present examples of initiatives that are working to change this, including the Alzheimer's Disease Data Initiative and the William H. Gates Sr. Fellowship program, which supports open science, international collaboration, and early\u2010career researchers from underrepresented regions. These efforts demonstrate that diversity is not only an ethical goal, but a scientific need. More inclusive and global research could lead to discoveries that are more generalizable, more globally applicable, and better able to inform strategies to address dementia across all communities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:list list-type=\"bullet\">\n                        <jats:list-item>\n                          <jats:p>Prioritize representation in datasets across ethnicity, geography, sex\/gender, and socio\u2010economic status.<\/jats:p>\n                        <\/jats:list-item>\n                        <jats:list-item>\n                          <jats:p>Support early\u2010career researchers from underrepresented regions with long\u2010term funding and mentorship.<\/jats:p>\n                        <\/jats:list-item>\n                        <jats:list-item>\n                          <jats:p>Standardize and adapt tools (cognitive, clinical, genomic) across cultural and linguistic contexts.<\/jats:p>\n                        <\/jats:list-item>\n                        <jats:list-item>\n                          <jats:p>Promote open science through equitable, federated data sharing platforms, and embed community engagement from research design to dissemination.<\/jats:p>\n                        <\/jats:list-item>\n                        <jats:list-item>\n                          <jats:p>Value diversity as a driver of discovery, not as a confounder.<\/jats:p>\n                        <\/jats:list-item>\n                      <\/jats:list>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/alz.71069","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,10]],"date-time":"2026-01-10T08:02:26Z","timestamp":1768032146000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Advancing global dementia research through equity and inclusion"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4935-6721","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Natalia","family":"Vilor\u2010Tejedor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Barcelona\u03b2eta Brain Research Center (BBRC) Pasqual Maragall Foundation  Barcelona Spain"},{"name":"Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences Utrecht University  Utrecht The Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Human Genetics Radboud University Medical Center  Nijmegen The Netherlands"},{"name":"Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST)  Barcelona Spain"},{"name":"Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute  Barcelona Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Samuel","family":"Danso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science and Engineering Sunderland University  Sunderland UK"},{"name":"Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences College of Medicine &amp;
